feature request for stand-alone info

Hi,

As 'info' is a document reader, I kind of expect it to behave
like 'less': when I type the arrow keys, the text scrolls.

So I would like to request a setting, 'movement-always-scrolls',
that makes 'info' behave for forward movements as if the cursor
is on the last line of the screen, and for backwards movements
as if the cursor is on the top line of the screen, no matter where
the cursor actually is, while keeping the cursor in the exact same
spot on the screen (when line length allows it).

For new users, I think it would be best if this option defaulted
to On.

(Additionally, it would be nice if Enter simply selected the first
visible link on the page, without the need to type Tab first.)

Benno
